Hi Bonnie,
my name is Grit from Germany,
I sewed your Easy Street in blue/red/white. You showed this quilt on your Facebook page.
I know you love hexagons. Please look on my blog Grit`s Life http://gritslife1.blogspot.com/2013/08/13500-hexagons.html
I posted my actually hexagon project "La Passion".
Now I sewed 13500 hexagons size 1/2 inch. Just 3500 to finish my quilt.
I would be happy about your answer,when you take a look.
Sorry for my English, I hope you understand.
Greetings from Germany, Grit

You can click the "translate" option at the top of the blog to read the post in English instead of German.
Isn't this spectacular?
Thank you Grit for Sharing!
As for me….I am on a plane to Seattle via Atlanta today! I hope to have enough connectivity on this trip that I can post updates now and then. I ran out of time to write posts ahead –but I will do what I can!

Incredible Grit! Of course, these are my favorite colors so that helps! What a beauty - thanks for sharing!
I found Grit's blog some months ago. She is so talented. She tempted me, and other quilters, to start La Passion. She will make a blogpost to present us all in September. You can find my La Passion on the side bar of my blog.
